Why do you assume everyone who disagrees with you is white?

and now Miley feels the need to sweep Nicki's feelings under the rug yet again because it's convenient for her to do so and it also deflects from the blatant cultural appropriation that she engages in
if i myself, being throughly anglo-saxon and translucently pale can put all of this together it really shouldn't be that hard for the rest of ya'll, but drag I guess! i imagine it's a lot easier living in the fantasy world where racism isn't a huge issue

I don't care what was in her head, it was horribly handled and, furthermore, was clearly about Taylor. And I am black, and her not getting a nomination shouldn't be turned into a race issue. How you can explain that her song not getting a nomination and her pointing out how thin white women will get nominations due to racism over her s***** song that speaks about having a big butt is just prejudice is stupid. The song was bad. Racism should be the LAST explanation, I don't care what race you are. Racism seems so prevalent now because people say everything is due to racism.
